Oil absorbent cotton is a super-absorbent material manufactured from polypropylene, capable of absorbing spilled oil mixtures in any form, whether in liquid, emulsified, or dispersed on the water surface.
This product is specially designed to address oil spills on water surfaces and can absorb impressively up to 50 times its own weight. 1. Properties of polypropylene (PP) material
Polypropylene is a non-polar polymer, making it difficult to dissolve in water and other solvents at room temperature. However, at higher temperatures, PP can dissolve in some solvents, such as xylene.
PP exhibits outstanding chemical inertness, showing resistance to alkalis, detergents, and oils at room temperature. This makes it an ideal material for applications requiring resistance to chemicals.
PP is resistant to microorganisms and not degraded by bacteria or fungi. Therefore, it is an ideal material for applications requiring resistance to microorganisms.
PP has high hardness, high mechanical strength, high heat resistance, and good impact resistance. These advantages make it an optimal material for applications requiring high durability.
Quick absorption: The cotton is manufactured using advanced nano technology from Japan on a polypropylene base, providing superior absorption capacity with a large surface area for absorption.
Superior absorption ability, fast oil absorption, and environmentally friendly characteristics make it suitable for responding to oil spills in ecologically sensitive areas.
The smooth white cotton is easy to identify when absorbing oil, and its high buoyancy after absorption facilitates easy retrieval.
